Dropped the 67 off for some new belts and water pump. That loud squealing will be gone today!

Just brought home a set of tires 285 or 295 (can't remember exactly) 75 R16 BF Goodrich TA KOs for $200. They have 75% tread still on them. They also came with a set of wheels but I can't use the wheels being they are for a dodge 3/4ton. I may see if they fit as spares for the 89 F350 since they look nicer then the ones I have on their. The tires are going on the 02 so that we have some good tires since one of the General Garbage tires took a crap last month. Got to get the wheels of the 02 F250 and bring them in to the shop to be mounted and balanced on her wheels.

Dodge has stayed SAE at least up to the last few years. I don't know about them.
Ford & Chevy went metric but Dodge didn't so they will fit any 8 lug SAE Ford or Chevy. Not sure what year Ford or Chevy went metric.

I know ford went metric in 99.

Luckily they will fit our 89 F250, 89 F350, or my brothers 91 F250.

Good morning AZ

Craig sounds like your getting a lot done up there.

I've been really busy with this new trainee, needs a lot of "hand holding".

If everything goes right this will be sitting in my garage Sunday afternoon. (Just the bed)

stock dodge had 1/2 inch studs for a lot of years, where ford and chevy were 9/16 inch studs. I have never put dodge wheels on a ford but I do know that putting ford wheels on a dodge is tough as the nuts bed too deep in the taper of the rims so you have to find wide flange nuts so they will work. the dodge rims might be too tight to go over the 9/16 inch studs so I would check them before I had the tires mounted and balanced.
